摘要:
A digital optical information disk contains content and/or non-content information on both sides of a single substrate produced by a process that embosses the surfaces of both sides substantially simultaneously. Simultaneous molding substantially eliminates the need for lamination when two or more data layers are to be provided. Preferably, the disk is relatively small, such as less than 50 mm in diameter and can replicate marks or features with a z-dimension magnitude of about 80 mm or more. The disk remains within a specified opto-mechanical range of an optical transducer and has little, if any, non-planarity (warp) or other distortion. The disk can be used for reading pre-written or mastered content, e.g., in a user's device, and/or can include information or features that permits or supports utility functions, allowing the user to record data thereon such as tracking, sector, location, timing, synchronization features or combinations thereof. Preferably, the disk is formed by an injection-only technique, although it is possible to provide suitable disks by an injection-compression technique as well.

An optical disk has a multi-layer tuned optical coating overlying both small bumps to store pre-recorded information and lands onto which information is written to and read. The optical coating includes a phase-change metal/alloy layer formed over the disk substrate and a dielectric layer formed over the phase-change layer. An optical disk according to the invention has specific topological features and sizes.

Disclosed is an optical data storage medium with enhanced contrast. The optical data storage medium includes a substrate having oppositely facing first and second surfaces. A first metal/alloy layer is formed overlaying the first surface of the substrate. The first metal/alloy layer is formed from tin, antimony and element selected from the group consisting of indium, germanium, aluminum, and zinc. After the first metal/alloy layer is formed, a first dielectric layer is formed overlaying the first metal/alloy layer. This dielectric layer is formed from silicon oxynitride. The first metal/alloy layer is positioned between the substrate and the first dielectric layer.

An optical storage disc has portions for storing pre-recorded or mastered information and portions for storing user writable information, where the mastered portion and the writable portions have different storage capacities or areal data densities. During manufacture, a substrate is formed with a sequence of bumps to represent the mastered information and a series of grooves and lands, where information can later be written on the lands. A phase-change material is deposited over the substrate, the phase-change material changing both physical structure and optical constants when written to, e.g., by a laser.

An optical medium uses a single structure or format (such as identical materials, layers and the like) for both a region for holding mastered data and a writeable area. In one aspect, a writeable region of a medium with mastered content is used in connection with paying, collecting or accounting for usage or royalties for proprietary intellectual property embodied in or associated with the content. In one embodiment, the (preferably write-once) writeable area can be used for storing later-written information such as annotations, highlighting, reordering, remixing, modifications, supplements, collections, additions, bookmarks, cross references, hypertext or hyperlinks and the like. Preferably, annotations and similar materials can be associated, by the user, with particular portions or content of the mastered data.

A magnetic storage system includes a magnetic storage medium comprising a keeper layer of relatively low permeability soft magnetic material deposited upon a magnetic storage layer or between multiple magnetic storage layers. The low permeability keeper layer may be disposed either above or below the magnetic storage layer. In the unsaturated state, the keeper layer acts as a shunt path for flux emanating from recorded transitions on the magnetic storage layer, producing an image field of the recorded transitions in the keeper. This shunt path prevents signal flux emanating from the recorded transitions from reaching the head. To read data from a recorded transition on the magnetic storage layer; a bias current is applied to windings of the head, creating a bias flux which saturates a portion of the keeper layer. Once saturated, this portion of the keeper can no longer shunt flux emanating from the recorded transition, which is the region represented by the head reproduce transducer.

The flexible, particulate magnetic storage medium includes a substrate and a magnetic storage layer of hard magnetic particles held within a binder. The flexible, particulate magnetic storage medium also includes a soft magnetic keeper layer. The soft magnetic keeper layer may be established by coating the individual hard magnetic particles of the magnetic storage layer with a layer of soft magnetic material to establish a "keeper layer" around each particle. A break layer of non-magnetic material may be provided between the hard and soft layers. The individual particles are coated by methods such as in situ precipitation. The soft magnetic layer may also be established by providing a separate layer of soft magnetic material within a binder of cross linkable resins. The resulting flexible, particulate magnetic storage medium is a laminate principally comprising a substrate, a first layer of hard magnetic particles within a binder, and a second layer of soft magnetic particles also within a binder. The laminate medium may be produced through extrusion of binder particle mixes through multi aperture slot die extensions. The flexible, particulate magnetic media may be used in tape or flexible disc formats.

A modularized information display panel is formed of identical modules which have thin film transistor control elements disposed at display elements which are in an X-Y array upon the module substrate. The display medium driving electrode portion of the thin film circuit which is associated with each display element is non-symmetrically spaced relative to a unit display element, but the display element electrode is symmetrically positioned relative to the center of symmetry of the individual modules which make up the panel. In this way abutted display modules which form the display panel have display element arrays which are symmetrically aligned in the X-Y directions while the interconnecting X-Y buses of the abutted modules are offset.
